1Opinion of the Court

KNOLL, Judge.

The Thirtieth Judicial District Court of Vernon Parish, sitting as the Juvenile Court, entered a judgment declaring the minor child, Angela Weaver, in need of care and neglected by her divorced and remarried mother, Glennys Vargas. The court granted custody of the child to the father, Donald Ray Weaver.

This appeal, brought by Angela’s mother, Glennys, contends the juvenile court did not have jurisdiction under LSA-C.J.P. Art. 15 et seq., and, that the juvenile court erred in sustaining the objection to the relevancy of evidence of the father’s character prior to 1980. We affirm.
